HC Deb 25 February 1919 vol 112 cc1620-1W
Earl WINTERTON

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will receive a deputation from the Shoreham and Southwick Urban District Councils on the subject ofthe development of harbour facilities at Shoreham Harbour, in view of the fact that Shoreham Harbour is likely to be of great importance to the trade of West Sussex in the future?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

I think these local authorities should lay their views before the Shoreham Harbour Trustees, if they have not already done so. I would be happy to arrange for a deputation from the district councils to be received, but I would suggest that they should in the first instance put forward in writing any proposals which they have in mind.
